“Describeathon14” for Global Accessibility Awareness Day on May 15

Our friends at the Smith-Kettlewell Eye Research Institute will be hosting Describeathon14 in recognition of Global Accessibility Awareness Day on May 15, 2014. Volunteers in San Francisco and all over the world will raise their voices on this Day of Description to make the web a safer place for accessible video. Participants will use YouDescribe to describe as many videos as possible in one day and share them with the world. Those who can will describe what they see, while others will contribute by providing feedback and identifying YouTube videos that could really use some description.
